Breakdown of the Competition: A premium cocktail competition within the North, showcasing Beefeater London Dry Gin & Beefeater 24 Gin, with the best Bartenders invited to compete within the competition. No more hiding, no more long necks, no more shrinking violets…. It’s time for the second battle of the bartenders with the North... It’s put up or shut up for the best of the best bartenders! James Hill showed his skills last year, taking the first place and led the field! The contestants will be announced within the next 2 weeks. The competition will be based on an invitation to the top Bartenders within Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool and Newcastle. The competition is based on the 12 best Bartenders competing on the Drink Academy Bar at NRBS. Each Bartender will compete in the following challenges: Classic Cocktail – Each Bartender makes a classic cocktail based on the sponsors chosen spirit. Bartenders will be informed on the day of the competition of the drink. Signature Cocktail – Each Bartender is to create an individual cocktail, based on the Beefeater 24 Gin.
We are currently approaching various parties who have key involvement within the trade to judge the event, to bring both their expertise and an added interest and depth to the event. We are looking to confirm a very high profile judge, which will require expenses to be paid and possibly a fee for judging. The judge’s panel will be announced in the next 2 weeks. |
